“Looks like a good pitch and on the slower side as well.” Rohit said at the toss. “I think it was way back in 2019 when we played that semi-final. NZ has been one of the most consistent teams over the years and it will be a good contest. I think it’s a very important day…but you’ve to turn up on that particular day.
“We would have had a bat first as well. Obviously, a used surface and hopefully some dew in the evening.” Kane Williamson. “Looking forward to the challenge ahead. It should be a good game. Both teams have seen a variety of conditions and it’s knockout cricket really.
